Man Solicits for Funeral of a Very-Much-Alive Person
Here's a video from NBC4 taken by a woman who confronted a fake funeral solicitor on a street corner in Monrovia.
His sign had a picture of a man he said was his brother and it indicated he wanted help to pay the funeral expenses for that brother, except...
It wasn't a picture of his brother, it was a picture of the woman's son, and the son is very much alive. And she was very much annoyed. https://is.gd/2S4KjO
